Updated February 2017 Welcome. In this course you will learn everything you need to dramatically increase your ranking on Google. I founded a startup while earning a 4.0 weighted GPA from UC Santa Barbara. I later earned my Juris Doctor from UC Berkeley. I've worked with some of the smartest and most talented people in the Bay area, including at UC Berkeley's School of Information. I designed this course for everyone with a website that wants to gain a large amount of daily visitors from Google and other search engines. By the end of the course you will have learned everything you need to rank highly on Google for valuable search terms. This type of marketing can cost upwards of $10,000 per month for a national campaign, but you will be able to perform all of the steps yourself for free. You will learn how to develop content that is targeted to increase your ranking for specific phrases. You will also learn many actionable strategies to increase the amount of other websites that link to your site. The quality and quantity of these links are Google's primary way to determine a website's ranking on the search engine results pages. Finally, you will learn of many different tools to assist you along your way. The goal of this course is to weave all of these strategies and tools into one cohesive action plan so that you can immediately begin using SEO to increase your exposure on Google and other search engines. The strategies you will learn are great for people who want an extremely profitable marketing campaign but don't want to spend the money that professionals usually charge for this type of work. I will walk you through the entire process, step by step. I'll also be available to answer questions from students as well. My goal is to help you and your website succeed. The ideal student for this course is a website owner that would benefit from a large amount of traffic. There are no requirements necessary to enroll. I've made a small portion of the course available for free so you can take a look at the quality of the materials.
